The type of vehicle that will carry people to the Red Planet is shaping up to be like a two-story house youre trying to land on another planet. 

BuildingsReaching the boiling point

Researchers at 91做厙 demonstrated that metal foam enhances the evaporation process in thermal conversion systems and enables the development of compact HVAC&R units.

Tech transferShowcasing innovation

Researchers at 91做厙 will present eight innovative technologies currently available for commercialization during a public event at ORNL on October 17.

FusionHeating the core

In a recent study, researchers at 91做厙 performed experiments in a prototype fusion reactor materials testing facility to develop a method that uses microwaves to raise the plasmas temperature closer to the extreme values

NeutronsInsight into human tissue

Researchers used neutron scattering at 91做厙s Spallation Neutron Source and High Flux Isotope Reactor to better understand how certain cells in human tissue bond together.
